So basically the Rancho 5000's I have on here now suck ***** and I'm in need of a better performing shock.

I'm currently running no shocks up front, but I will soon weld in a set of F-250 shock towers to be able to run shocks up front.

Any suggestions to a little *better* ride?

you should run some procomp ES9000 shocks for the price i really like mine 35 a piece.

get me some measurements and i can help with the shocks

have you seen these shock towers? that is what i would get if i had leaf springs up front.

Looks like a nice kit.

The rears have 14" of travel, but I'm not sure of collapsed or extended lengths.

Brenton

 

here are some with almost 16"

You sure like Summit don't you? haha Good place. I kind of want something a little bit , more if you will.

Brenton

 

little bit more? not sure i follow.

 

Like something by FOX or another brand like that, but they have quite a few shocks to choose from and I'm not sure which would fit my application best.

in that case...

bilstein 7100s.

 

I want to, but I don't think I have the time for that.

Anything with the name Bilstein is good. I don't have a truck like yours, but if i could tell a difference you should as well. I've had them for two years now and they are holding up perfectly.

 

My buddy's toyota has Bilstein 5125s....the truck rides AWESOME! Affordable too. 14" travel front, 12" travel rear. Fronts are mounted to a hoop...similar to what beard posted. The 35s are too small...its ridin on 39.5 Iroks now.

 

KYB MonoMax's

 

Dude your buddy has a nice rig.

 

thanks man...there really is nothing like dropping 4k in 2 days, w/ a 2 day build time. lol.

 

im ditching my supercrap shocks soon for bilstens again. 7100s front and 5150s for the rear
